Kala: Project Management in Django

Kala is a project management application written in Python on the Django web framework. Organizations can use Kala to group their documents based on functional divisions and by projects within those divisions. The user documentation has a longer description of the intended usage.

Kala is the Hawaiian name for surgeonfish and is the mascot for the Kala project management software.

Main Features

  • Users, Organizations and Projects can all provide access control
  • Written in Python 3 and Django
  • MIT License, use as you please
  • Easy to use (IMHO)
  • Extensible if you know Python and Django

Development

In order to run the development environment, you should install docker and docker compose. Once you have done that you can:

$ docker compose up

You will now be able to open http://localhost:8080 and see the Kala application. There are two users created:

teststaff@example.com and testuser@example.com both have the password set to test
